Rams' injury report stays the same

EARTH CITY, Mo. -- The St. Louis Rams had hoped to spend the bye week getting healthy and ready for a final six-game stretch run to close the season. They didn't suffer any serious injuries during their two bye-week practices, but they also probably aren't as healthy as they'd like to be heading toward Sunday's game against the Chicago Bears.

The Rams made no changes to their injury report Thursday after listing four players as not participating and two more as limited Wednesday.

For the second day in a row, the Rams practiced without the services of guard Harvey Dahl (knee), quarterback Brady Quinn (hip/lower back), cornerback Cortland Finnegan (eye) and running back Chase Reynolds (knee). The absence of Dahl and Quinn is no surprise as both players had missed time leading into the bye. Finnegan and Reynolds were additions and so far haven't don't anything in practice this week.

Safeties Darian Stewart (foot) and Matt Giordano (thigh) were designated as limited participants again Thursday. The injuries to Finnegan, Stewart and Giordano have left the Rams a little short-handed in the secondary in practice this week.

Of note for the Bears, offensive tackle Jordan Mills (quadriceps) was upgraded from limited participation Wednesday to full participation Thursday.
